hi roger,
this from my 'how to clean everything' book;

use ice cubes to chill the tar to brittleness, then scrape the tar carefully
with a plastic spatula. to remove the tar stain, apply a damp cloth wrapped
around a paste made of powdered detergent, chalk, or a diatomaceous earth, and
water. leave the paste on the stain for several hours, checking periodiclly.

good luck, carol
